What are the benefits of Service Packages
over A la Carte Services?
Other than a proofreader needing fresh eyes, the stages of editing are fluid and difficult to separate, as there is often a lot of overlap. A packaged service is therefore more comprehensive.
I have combined some of the individual services into packages for continuity and economy of effort, and I pass on the savings to my authors. It is more cost effective to hire BFF Editing to do a package service, and the author also benefits from the more comprehensive and seamless nature of the edit.
